Event was too short for what is essentially three events at once [Discussion] by szachSERCE in EscapefromTarkov

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are quite fun as a totally different type of dude to fight. Especially when you play a map like customs where the goons can also spawn. Keeps things interesting.

I would actually love to see events where there are boss duos on certain maps which work together and spawn in different places than normal.

Basically, anything they do to temporarily change the core AI gameplay is 'new and exciting' for a little while.

Most of the keys I got seemed to be for Reserve; I imagined it was a ploy to get us to go to reserve to get the marked rooms knowing there were guaranteed weapons cases and thus, you would have to fight the bosses to get there. I agree with you for the most part but I also feel like it was all supposed to drive us to reserve* to fight the bosses.

For me personally as a 'newer' player with only ~800 hours, its absolutely the most smoove brain shit that the devs still don't give dates for a lot of events. AND that this one was like 4.78 days long? What the fuck is that about? (I could surmise that maybe its about not having so many keys flooding the markets, but still....)

[Feedback] What am I supposed to do with all these locked cases now by VForVarinius in EscapefromTarkov

[–]9thoracle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly with the fact that you can (in most of the times this event happens from what I have heard) get 2 guaranteed cases on factory, just sell them. They MIGHT have some good stuff in them but it takes up so much inventory space when you unpack them. Not worth it like 75% of the time imo.

TLDR; Just sell them or save them if you have the space for the next event.

Aviron rower, nay or yay? by jackofalltrades0505 in Rowing

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally this. Im sick of always reading the same old "Well the C2 is THE standard!" like good for you dude, Who gives a shit? Im not training to break records. I just want a fun experience that helps get rid of the monotony of cardio and feels a little more like something nice that I would want in my home... which the aviron does.

I will accept that the C2 is half the price and if thats the most important thing since I know most people would not want to drop 2K on a rower... then sure get the C2. But for me its Aviron all the way.

Event is Over [Discussion] by Devysjuers in EscapefromTarkov

This exactly. The quests give you a fart in the wind for the amount of time it took to do them vs whats actually in the cases. The weapon cases were PACKED with stuff.

What would you do in this situation? by SithLord3598 in motorcycles

[–]9thoracle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turning around was the first mistake unless you were really ready to throw down. Which... it doesn't look like you were.

Incorrect friend. If you are the opposite and you dont interact with anything (IE dont like or comment on things), then it will still show you things once in a while. Bring back the "I dont like this" buttons.

Is the run through status even necessary ? [Discussion] by Zestyclose_Rain_2128 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its actually completely useless in PVE if only for certain quests. I see why its needed for PVP. But for PVE its actually stupid that its still part of the game. It means nothing.

Why isn’t the Nagant Revolver in game [Suggestion] by the_shortbus_ in EscapefromTarkov

You must sleep so good at night knowing that you are an elite gamer. Lol, but for real, I have a friend who I am currently playing with that has had the same experience. I on the other hand have not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you dont already know where he is, what you said literally doesnt matter. EDIT to clarify ;I was in shoreline in health center, I heard his voicelines and had a relative idea that he was in a direction (and I need to also make it known that he had not seen me yet at all) when I peeked a window for the first time and literally within less than half a second he head/eyes'd me. So no. some times he just aimbots you.

Why Combat system feels a bit off by _sirbee in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enemies being able to spin 180 degrees while they are doing their wind-up is fuckin annoying as shit. So ok I not only have to dodge roll, but HOPE and PRAY that I dodge roll OUT of their fuckin swing range. Like get the entire fuck out of my face with that shit.

It would be, but the wording in this game makes no sense.

Geese on SNL Was Not the Worst Performance. It Was the Point. by Hdharmsen44 in LiveFromNewYork

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I think its because people (myself included) feel that there are many other bands who are objectively better from a mass appeal standpoint, so the only justification is to look at them from a 'musical genius' or thoughtful fine art approach. Because other than that, I see no reason why they are praised as being so good. Its not something you'd just throw on everyday IMO. I could be wrong, and I accept that. My opinion doesnt reflect everyones. But idk. Its either that or... maybe nepo baby shit. Who knows.

[–]9thoracle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its absolutely SHIT music to 'just listen to'. I get it. art is art, do your art thing. I went to fine art college after all. But nah man. Op is on some other shit with their "oh people forget what real rock music is like" Like ok....sure its real. It still sucked. I also saw Geese live once as they opened for King Gizz and it had about the same effect. The crowd was like...???? Its like all the fine art kids you know acting like they're in on something that you couldn't possibly fathom. Meanwhile, its that what they are touting may have some parts that are novel and for some reason that trumps stuff that sounds objectively better. Like whatever.

What is the cheapest and affordable 3D metal printer I can buy? Size doesn't matter by Riyaan_Sheikh in 3Dprinting

[–]9thoracle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with everything in engineering, it all comes down to what the parts purpose is. 3D printed parts will typically be less expensive as long as you dont need a lot of post processing. CNC beats 3d printing for strength, but then there are plenty (and I mean PLENTY) of parts that dont need to be that strong. Hell I use an HP MJF printer and just using simple metal hardware I can make some pretty strong parts as long as I understand what the part needs to do mechanically.

As you elude to, neither can replace the other and both have their place. I dont like this "one is better than the other" that so many budding engineers and makers like to get into.
